    For many, using lithium-ion batteries to store energy has proven to be too expensive to be worth-while. This happens to not be the case for Chris Shelton of AES Energy Storage.

Embedding Evidence on Conservation Interventions Within a Context of Multilevel Governa... - 0 views

  • The lack of availability of larger-scale evidence can thus lead to an unfortunate mismatch in knowledge of the relative effects of local-scale interventions versus regional-scale ecological processes, and thus also to incomplete knowledge about where local conservation interventions would be most effective.
  • Integrating specific intervention-guided conservation with a deeper understanding of moderating regional ecological contexts requires combining intervention-driven conservation thinking with “holistic” conservation thinking. As an example, incentives intended to benefit farmland biodiversity may increase one resource, such as food availability, but fail to provide other key resources such as nesting sites or overwintering habitats (Kleijn et al. 2011).
  • Embedding specific conservation interventions within the context of multiscale ecological principles could help alleviate the problem that a focus on local conservation interventions is unable to deal with multiscale phenomena. However, it does not yet address another main criticism raised in the past, namely that existing work on evidence-based practice in general has been overly technocratic in its conception of real-world policy implementation and governance (Greenhalgh & Russell 2009, but see Pullin et al. 2009). In this context, drawing on insights from multilevel governance research could help to understand key challenges of implementing evidence-based interventions in practice. Such insights can be applied to both specific interventions, as well as to a more general, multiscale approach to conservation that is based on guiding ecological principles.

  • An effective response to the wide variety in governance and ecological systems therefore calls for the creation of new decision-making forums that engage diverse constellations of actors and knowledge across spatial and temporal scales, in ways relevant to specific decisions (Paavola et al. 2009). This in turn raises issues of democratic legitimacy and accountability, because for citizens it may become difficult to assume democratic responsibilities when being part of overlapping sites of decision-making (Peters & Pierre 2005).
  • The second step will be to ensure that scientists, policy makers, and practitioners participate in the cocreation of policy-relevant science, going beyond identifying stakeholder-relevant questions for systematic reviews. From the outset, scientists and decision-makers should jointly consider how administrative and ecological scales fit in order to balance democratic legitimacy and ecological efficacy.
  • By being clear as to the types and scales of knowledge needed, and the limitations of existing knowledge to inform policy, decision-makers will also play a role in highlighting knowledge gaps. We thus frame decision-makers as actively participating stakeholders in shaping what evidence base is needed for conservation, rather than framing conservation policy as something that must respond to the agenda of scientists who produce evidence. As a consequence, there is a strong need to develop practical solutions, based on a joint effort by researchers, decision-makers and land-use planners, on how to integrate evidence-based practices and general ecological principles within a multilevel governance framework. Through embedding locally implemented conservation interventions within a broader context, we are confident they would gain both in legitimacy and effectiveness.

    To "refresh your recollection" (I am a former lawyer, after all), let me take you back. Good Guide is a beta site that rates products on three scales: environmental, nutritional, and social justice (my terms, not theirs). They reduce a product and its producer to three numerical scores, with 10 being the top score. Then they combine the three scores to a single score purporting to rate a product/producer overall. More than a month ago, I wrote to Good Guide through its website asking for help in understanding how it could rate a commercial "lite" yogurt (Yoplait) with all its additives, so much higher than an organic, plain whole milk (Straus) made from nothing more than organic whole milk and live yogurt cultures, and higher than an organic nonfat plain (Nancy's) made from nothing more than organic nonfat milk and live yogurt cultures.

    Offshore wind could be described as the younger sibling of onshore wind, with the first offshore windfarm being completed off the coast of Denmark 1991. In countries such as the US, offshore wind is almost non-existent at the moment , but offshore wind is particularly strong in the UK and Europe, with 1.9GW being installed on the continent in the first half of 2019.

    The janitorial business is no longer a mop and bucket project. With greater demands for Green Clean Certification by government, schools, and public buildings, it can bring in new business or cost you a valuable account. This designation will become more valuable year after year, and it will be required for numerous janitorial jobs. Businesses are increasingly asking, "Is your service Green Clean certified?" That does not come from Green products on the carts.

    Content matters. With strategy, it's not just your content that matters-it's what you talk about and how you talk about it. Without an idea of who you're targeting, if you don't have a strategy in place to attract them, your efforts will fall flat. https://senseireview.com/category/internet-marketing/

    Business owners take all possible steps to ensure customer satisfaction. One of the most successful and recommended strategies in this regard is to begin with a virtual receptionist service. This service brings in extra representatives for a business and eases the lives of the customers. When the customers have questions or queries to be answered or any problems to be solved, they try to reach the authoritative body telephonically and it is not uncommon for them for not having to been able to do so. This is where the need for virtual receptionists comes in. Virtual receptionists are basically persons who work for the customer support but do not work from the office or any specified location.
